The sister's curse / by Solvinic, Nicola,author.;
"In this spellbinding mystery, a cop must solve a curious case of drownings that exposes the strange nature of her town. Lieutenant Anna Koray still can't outrun the darkness. She's started living with her boyfriend and she even has a dog-everything should be normal. Except that mysterious things always find her. After she saves a little boy from nearly drowning, she notices bizarre marks on his body like something tried to drag him to the water's depths. When a similar case happens soon after, Anna can't shake the feeling that it's no coincidence, especially when the victims are family members of some of the wealthiest men in town known as the Kings of Warsaw Creek. And they have enemies ... like the local bartender who just may be a witch, hexing those who cross her. But a deeper look into the case leads her to a history of drownings in town. Could it have started from an old legend? A curse? Or maybe there's a shadowy being luring victims to their doom. Anna's not convinced. But whoever-or whatever-it is behind the recent drownings, Anna will have to uncover soon ... or she'll find herself underwater, slipping into the darkness once again"--

The hunter's daughter / by Solvinic, Nicola,author.;
"A hypnotic, sinister debut mystery about a seemingly good cop who is secretly the daughter of a notorious serial killer who must, against all the rules, insert herself into a new investigation when ritually killed bodies start appearing in her father's old territory. Anna Koray has shut the door on her past. The records of her childhood-and the troubling memories-are sealed away thanks to a controversial hypnosis treatment. She's a police lieutenant in a rural town, raising money for good causes, coaching girls soccer, and even on-and-off dating Nick, a local ER doctor. Then she shoots a man in the line of duty and finds herself terribly drawn to him in the moment of his death. Her childhood memories return, igniting terrible dreams of her beloved father, his hands red with blood, surrounded by flower-decked corpses he had sacrificed to the god of the forest. Simultaneously, to Anna's horror and fascination, a serial killer has emerged who is copying her father. Can it be a coincidence? Is her father alive after all? Will the killer expose her, destroying everything she has built for herself, including her rekindled relationship with Nick? Does she want him to? Against all the rules Anna inserts herself into the investigation, walking a thin line between justice and protecting her secrets. But as she haunts the forest, using her father's tricks to hunt the killer, will she find what she needs most ... or lose herself in the gathering darkness?"--
